[Bug 433925] Re: Karmic livecd wont boot due to graphics card not working with opensource nvidia drivers

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nv
  
  My graphics card ASUS Nvidia 9600GT does not work with the opensource
  nvidia drivers, as a result the live CD for Karmic will not boot.
  
  X seems to fail silently so never falls back to the failsafe settings
  (and using vesa drivers).
  
  This happening with Karmic Alpha 6 live CD, but also happened with
  Jaunty live CD as well. Same thing will happen if try to start X without
  an xorg.conf file.
  
  Is there someway to blacklist this card so that X selects the vesa
  drivers ?
